@ORANGATANGA73 You would need to call Sky and return Glass within thr 31 days cool off.
You can call on 150 from a Sky Talk Line or Sky Mobile.
If you haven't got a current Sky Mobile or Sky Talk this link should help:
(UK) https://www.sky.com/help/home Scroll down and click on ‘Need more help’ and it provides a 0333 number
(ROI) on the same link change the flag in the very bottom corner to the ROI flag to obtain an 0818 number.
Stay on the line and don’t hang up if prompted to. Apparently the quieter times to ring are just after 7am or about 9pm.
43" Glass TV & Puck Whole Home
Please note I only provide help on the main forums and not via PM, PM's are switched off.

You can get rid. If you've had it for longer than 31 days then you can still phone Sky and ask to cancel the streaming subscription and switch to a Sky Q subscription. You would need to continue making monthly payments for the cost of the TV itself (if that's how you chose to pay) and would need an engineer visit to re-install a Sky Q box which would attach to the Glass TV via HDMI.
If you want to get rid of the Glass TV completely then you are free to give it away or sell it as it belongs to you. You will still need to pay off any remaining balance you owe on the cost of it, if you purchased on a finance deal.

Or you can attempt to claim under statutory consumer rights that the set isn't as described / of adequate quality / fit for purpose

Re: I hate sky glass- please can I have sky q back
totally agree with you Sky Glass is total rubbish. wish i just replaced my sky q when it packed up. have to keep unplugging to reset, sitting there to on standby flickers, start playing sound. hate the recording feature. half the time what's downloaded won't play and you have to play something else then go back.

@Antsfaul if you're still in your cooling-off period you can revert.
